    Rust protection overspray on wheels

    Hello All, I had some rust protection done on my new car from the dealer and there is some overspray (that I believe) on the wheels. They're tiny little black spots and don't come off easy unless I run my finger nail over it a few times. Is there a more efficient and effective way of...
